I really enjoy working at AON where we face challenges and work as a team to resolve any technical issues that may arise.

It was easy as I learnt the process within a day that is to be followed according to the SOP.

The management team and the colleagues are great people to work with.

One of the difficult parts of the jobs was when users requested new computers, which we did not have authorization to. However, speaking to their managers and getting authorizations usually solved this issue.

The most enjoyable part of the job was to perform tasks and learning new methods.

As a Benefits Analyst, I administer the Benefits for more than 12,000 employees (3 major clients) from a benefits and payroll perspective. My day consist of working anywhere between 8-10 hours per day.

AON taught me a lot about account management and how best to utilize my time and management skills. I learned how to assist our clients to allow for open dialogue and quick resolution of any issues with their coverage.

Pros

supervisors need more experience dealing with more respect for their subordinates

I worked there before they went public. The atmosphere was great then. I heard it has become a lot more corporate when they went public.Management is great. However, the work was extremely repetitive and mindless.

Little to no support for new membersExpect no compensation increase unless prepared to work 24/7No management suppotNo team buildingNo education reimbursement except for very specific coursesHR is non-existentMore and more of the business is handled by India, and thus treats the Canadian employees like they're in IndiaNo overtime pay

It was always exciting to go to work each day because of the friendly environment that reigned at work. The supervisors where always down to earth and ready to help, and co- workers where almost like a family, with everyone being so friendly. It was the first time I was working in the sector of insurances and I learned a great deal of new things. The most enjoyably part of the job was the flexibility in the schedules; and the hardest part of the job was the pressure from supervisors to meet timelines.

Pros

flexible shedules

Cons

doing one and the same thing over and over again became boring at one point

It may sometimes lack some cohesion in the higher level management decisions which can create some frustrations for junior level employees. However, the social environment and general atmosphere is great.

Their number one asset is definitely the people who work there.There is also a lot of career advancement opportunities.
